Kerbside collection with waste inspection and measurement

What is it?

The cap, installed on non-recyclable waste bins, is designed to encourage the public to recycle waste and allows the tracking of mixed waste collection.

How does it work?

There is no change to the type of existing collection service and no vehicle modifications are required. The aim is for the net direct costs to remain the same (increase in service costs but reduction in disposal costs).

It can run on power from renewable energy sources.

Possibility of introducing a “spot rate”.

Where is it?

There are about three thousand bins fitted with the cap in the Rimini area.
